Behind every champion is a championship winning car. Take a closer look at the vehicles that make Subaru Motorsports USA a force to be reckoned with.
Few vehicles in Subaru's history embody the brand's adventurous, unconventional spirit quite like the Subaru BRAT. Decades on from its utilitarian debut in 1978, Subaru Motorsports USA and technical partner Vermont SportsCar have brought the BRAT into the 21st century while holding onto its distinctive personality. With 670 horsepower, 680 lb-ft of torque and a BOXER engine revving beyond 9500 rpm, the Subaru Brataroo 9500 Turbo was built to break the mold, just like the original. Commissioned for Travis Pastrana's third Gymkhana performance, the Brataroo has a host of technical tricks including active aero, adjustable ride height, and an expanding rear wing.
Building on over 20 years of award-winning Subaru Rally Team USA experience and nearly 50 years of Subaru rally racing worldwide, the Subaru WRX ARA25 is America’s fastest rally car, carrying the torch from the seven-time American Rally Association (ARA) Championship-winning VT22r. Developed from ground up by technical partner Vermont SportsCar to make the most of current ARA regulations, the Subaru WRX ARA25 is a custom-built rally WRX with sophisticated aerodynamics and a state of the art drivetrain. Its iconic racing livery - an eye-catching combination of blue paint, gold wheels and bright yellow graphics - is synonymous with decades of Subaru rally performance on the world stage.
The all-new Subaru WRX ARA25L marks the debut of a Subaru Motorsports USA rally car within the fast-paced and accessible American Rally Association (ARA) Limited 4-Wheel-Drive (L4WD) class. Expertly designed and assembled by technical partner Vermont SportsCar to maximize performance at a lower cost than cars found in the top Open 4-Wheel-Drive (O4WD) class, the ARA25L showcases the performance of a much closer to stock Subaru WRX. Be sure to catch it on stage as Travis Pastrana and Rhianon Gelsomino take on the 2026 ARA National Championship.
Born from the success of the record-breaking "Airslayer" Gymkhana car, Project Midnight takes things to a new level with a singular directive: outright speed. The lightweight widebody machine inherits a legacy of rallycross dominance, now evolved to break records and push the performance envelope of the platform. Subaru Motorsports USA driver Scott Speed couldn't be better suited to pilot Project Midnight, with vast expertise from Rallycross, Formula One, NASCAR, and other disciplines.
Travis Pastrana's newest Gymkhana machine - built by the masters at Vermont SportsCar - is a carbon fiber-bodied wagon in the style of the 1983 GL wagon. Beneath its custom tubular chassis are an 862-hp SUBARU BOXER four-cylinder engine, six-speed sequential gearbox and all-wheel drive, the Huckster incorporates active aerodynamics for the fenders and tailgate that are unlike any Gymkhana car ever built, all controlled from a 12-inch digital display in the custom blue carbon fiber dash panel.
Winner of the 2017, 2018, 2019, 2021, 2022, and 2023 American Rally Association (ARA) National Championships, the WRX STI Open 4WD Class sedan was America's fastest rally car of the era. Technical partner Vermont SportsCar began with a production WRX STI and added a full roll cage, race-spec 2.0L turbocharged SUBARU BOXER engine, custom aerodynamics package, and heavy-duty rally suspension to create one of the most advanced street-legal competition vehicles in the world.
When Travis Pastrana needed a car to take the world's largest automotive viral video franchise to the next level - and break hillclimb records in the process - we delivered the Airslayer, the wildest WRX STI ever built. The Gymkhana 2020 STI starts from a production Subaru shell but shaves over 800 pounds from a stock STI's curb weight, with a fully caged interior and all-carbon body. The 2.3L billet SUBARU BOXER engine produces 862hp, while the long-travel suspension is designed to take the punishment of huge jumps and still execute precision tire-shredding slides. The aero package is wind tunnel-proven to deliver downforce at high speed while an active rear wing allows Pastrana to adjust the car's attitude in midair.
With more than 600 horsepower and cutting-edge aerodynamics, the VT21x Rallycross Supercar is the WRX STI at its most extreme. Power from the custom-built SUBARU BOXER engine is fed through a sequential six-speed gearbox, allowing for clutchless shifting and a 0-60 time of just two seconds, while the custom-built suspension is designed to handle the launches, jumps, high-speed corners, and wheel-to-wheel impacts of rallycross competition.
